    Good evening Nathan,
    I learn a long time ago that when I meet someone for the first time to say their name five or six times. Also, today we have cell phones where can put their names and address in our phone directory. That works great for me.
    Have a great week.

    You aren't the only one that forgets names. lol My memory was affected by a car accident, and there's times I forget words, names, and phrases when I'm excited or tired. Ooh!! I have to thank you, dear sir!! (see? I forgot your name, Nathan).. Since I started watching your videos, I have learned a lot about wood, and the names of the markings found inside. I watched a video today from a Japanese man by the name of Yoshihiro Sasada. He owns a big sawmill, and he was cutting a massive piece of horse chestnut. I'm talking about 6 to 7 ft high big. 5 branches coming off of one end, and the diameter was probably close to 5 ft or more on one end. I found the crotch feathering and was amazed that it was over 5 to 6 ft long or even longer in some of the slabs. Thank you for taking the time to teach some of us tree "dummies", so we can find the beauty in every slab of tree we watch getting cut. You were the first one I watched and subbed to, and he was the second one. Iron and Oak is the third and last one. Now I can appreciate the beauty of any and all wood. 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😊 Not bad for an old woman.. lol!!!

  • @jeffery19677
    @jeffery19677 2 года назад

    So when loading the queue, You dropped the first log to prevent others from rolling back and then dropped the rest on the mill side? Or did it just work out like that due to your order of milling preference. And is there no market for ash turning blanks" (1x1x12, 2x2x24,etc. I would think that hobbiests would pay more for lumber than standard prices. Also craftsmen who make tool handles.
